ShowMyPC automatically goes into non admin mode if the user either cancels UAC prompt or has lowered UAC settings.
In addition, ShowMyPC provides a non admin Show only version of your program. This is useful for end users who do not have admin permissions on a windows PC, and this will not trigger a UAC prompt while starting. During a session, some features such as UAC elevation will disconnect the viewer but viewers can reconnect back using the same password.
